Q2017

How was GATE 2017?

Following are experiences of GATE 2017

Vasudha says: It was tough comparatively to previous year … No pattern followed…there so many questions related to maths purely… That to not general aptitude maths… What does icrosat satellite does is none of an architects business.

Divya says: Gate AR 2016 was easier.

Vignesh says: Yes the numericals were easy and direct and so were the aptitude part. But the main architecture part was a bit tricky and confusing but still weren’t too hard either.overall a modest paper slightly tougher than last year’s.

Angha says: This time the GATE was moderate.difficulty level was quite high.also in mcq’s options were quite difficult.numericals this time were more than last year.There were questions regarding tree of columnar type,National Rurban mission,smart city scheme,structural elements of structures,Tuscan and composite columns ,materials used in ancient buildings of India,styles in architecture etc.

Anonymous says: (Written below. It was a different experience, so we made graphics)

Shrey says: The paper was quite difficult this time as compared to previous years.The numericals were little tricky and also the architecture theory questions were little weird and on a difficult side.

Abhinav says: I cant understand the paper pattern .in the qstn paper missed so many technical topic . a one qstn is related to conference agenda why ask this qstn too much numerical problem based on aptitude test. in a 2 marks qstn only two type of qstn 1 is matching and another one is numerical.

Garima says: The paper was tough ,previous year question papers had some pattern ,but 2017 paper was very tricky and didn’t follow any pattern ,even in match based questions ,if a person knows 3 answers ,then he/she will get confused in the last option.

GATE QUESTION 2017

We have matched the answer with the answer key provided by GATE official. Aspirants were invited to challenge the answer provided by GATE official. Doing so, answer of two questions were revised. Answer to the question “GRIHA Ceritfication” was either (A), (B) or (C). Answer for the question “Pigment Volume Concentration” was changed to 40. There are few more questions that should have been reviewed.

Answer: (A) If you knew Victor Horta, the question could have been so easy.

Art Nouveau is a French word meaning “New Art”. Belgium was an early center of the art nouveau, thanks largely to the architecture of Victor Horta, who designed the first art nouveau houses, the Hôtel Tassel in 1893, and the Hôtel Solvay in 1894.

Q.3 The unit for measuring sound absorption in a room is

(A) Sabin

(B) Phon

(C) Decibel

(3) Hertz

Answer: (A)Sabin

The term “sound absorption” very common to acoustics and question is asked very frequently in GATE for calculating Reverberation time = 0.016x(V/a), where a = sound absorption coefficient in Sabin.

The unit is named in honor of Wallace Clement Sabine. So, Sabin is a unit of Sound Absorption of a surface. A square metre of 100% absorbing material has a value of 1 metric sabin. An example of this would be a 1 m² open window. One square foot of 100% absorbing material has a value of 1 imperial sabin.

Q16. A site has a unidirectional slope of 30° with horizontal along its longer side. The projected dimensions of the site on the horizontal plane measures 30 m x 40 in. Using cut and fill method the site has to be levelled parallel to the horizontal plane. The minimum amount of earth to be excavated in cubic metre is

Sum of external force must be zero. So, 40+40-40 =40kN must be acting downward. As the truss is symmetrical, this 40kN must be equally divided at point Q & V. So, downward external force at Q be 20kN and at V be 20kN.

To solve this type of question, we must consider two things:

(i) Resolve all forces in x-axis & y-axis.

(ii) Always start from a point where there are minimum number of truss components. Here, the point is A (two truss member, A-S & A-R)

Now, consider triangle Δ RAS (Force behave same as if they are sides of a triangle. In simple term, if you know two sides of a triangle, you can always find the length of third side. Example, consider a triangle with sides 3cm, 4cm & 5cm. In the same triangle if there are two known forces of 3kN & 4kN, the third force must be of 5kN)

Q65. The growth of bacteria (lactobacillus) in milk leads to curd formation.

Growth of bacteria (lactobacillus) in milk at two different temperatures.

A minimum bacterial population density of 0.8 (in suitable units) is needed to form curd. In the graph below, the population density of lactobacillus in 1 litre of milk is plotted as a function of time, at two different temperatures 25 °C and 37 °C.

Consider the following statements based on the data shown above:

i. The growth in bacterial population stops earlier at 37 °C as compared to 25 °C

ii. The time taken for curd formation at 25 °C is twice the time taken at 37 °C

Which one of the following options is correct?

(A) Only i (B) Only ii (C) Both i and ii (D) Neither i nor ii

For question 20 they gave 60 persons for 500mm …. That a unit is 500mm or 50cm…. By the code book for a public building their should be minimum 2m wide entry / exit should be provided ….. Then for the for the population the width of the door is increased by units …. So for 2.2 m door …. 2.2m door the unit entry is 4 units …. Therefore 4*60
And there are 4 such doors …. So 4*60*4 = 960 people is correct answer …. Which is provided by gate official….

capacities of exits
the unit of exit width,used to measure the capacity of any exit,shall be 500mm. a clear width of 250mm shall be counted as an additional half unit.clear width less than 250mm shall not be counted for the exit width..source by nbc 2005
so..question given.each door exit dimension 2.2m.
we are calculate the occupant by each floor 2m.
thats means..2m to 2000mm*4 exit =8000mm
now divide by 500mm width given for 60 occupant..
so 8000mm/500mm =16 and multiply 4door width 2m.
now multiply 16*60= 960 answer.
thanks… for gatearchitecture.com

In Question no. 64 where sum of missing digits has to be determined.. why the answer is D.?? when the missing digits can be easily determined.. its
50000-48889=1111
and sum of missing digits –
0+0+0+0+8=8
plz tell me..

This type of question seems to confuse or encourages aspirants to make an error. They might have made an assumption. 0.5 m width of door is assumed as one unit. So, for 2.2 m width of door can be assumed as 4 units (not in fraction like 4.4 because for extra 0.2 m width, a person can not pass through the door).

The paper was tough ,previous year question papers had some pattern ,but 2017 paper was very tricky and didn’t follow any pattern ,even in match based questions ,if a person knows 3 answers ,then he/she will get confused in the last option

By FAR: 60750 X 2.5 = 151762.5
So total built-up = 151762.5
30% of this built-up = 45,528.75
Now ground coverage 45% of 45.528.75= x abd the x will be the ground c9verage and then we will multiply this area by 5 and we will get the max area. The ques was.. what will be the maximum area of hig.. and it was also mentioned that the distribution percentage was with respect to buildable area

40976 is the right ans , because via far we could achieve maximum permissible built up but here ground coverage and height restrictions are fixed… in equation 1 if we utilised complete far no of stories are 5.55 but the permisssible no of floor and height are given I.e 5 story. Hence we must follow given ground coverage and no of story

Hey evryone!! I have something in my mind. In that mig lig.. ques. Evrybody came wid different methods and all. But i think that sabke answers correct except ehose who didnt use far in calculation. The ques is how??
So here is the theory… No matter what were steps 1 by 1.. how much percentage of wat… The thing is.. when we put everything in one equation… We will gat the same ans.. becoz it is mutiplicatio. After all.. and then the ans is after the calculation is multiplied by 5..

ans of q 23 is trumpet
Trumpet interchange: Trumpet interchange is a popular form of three leg interchange. If one of the
legs of the interchange meets a highway at some angle but does not cross it, then the interchange is called
trumpet interchange. A typical layout of trumpet interchange is shown in figure 39:2.
2. Diamond interchange: Diamond interchange is a popular form of four-leg interchange found in the
